When Do You Need Commercial Pest Control?

From bedbugs in hotels to rodents in restaurants, pests in a commercial setting are always bad news. They can do serious damage to your reputation and seriously affect your bottom line. If you are dealing with any kind of commercial pest problem, it is critical to address the problem sooner rather than later. How do you know when you need to call in the professionals? Take a look at the following tips.

You need advice on how to prevent pests

Commercial pest control services not only help you get rid of pests, but can also help you prevent pests in the first place. Pest control experts can provide a comprehensive analysis of your place of business and identify protocols and procedures that will help you keep pests away, saving you the time, hassle, and nuisance of a pest problem.

You don’t know where the pests are coming from

Pests can enter a commercial setting in a variety of ways, including doors, windows, vents, plumbing, and cracks or holes in walls and floors. You can’t effectively deal with a pest problem until you know where the pests are coming from. You can try to treat it yourself with sprays and traps, but until you block them from getting into your establishment, you’re essentially just playing a game of whack-a-mole. Pest control experts can help you identify exactly how pests are getting into your facility and how you can prevent them from getting in.

You’re dealing with an infestation

While a couple of flies aren’t necessarily the end of the world, it’s important to note that it only takes couple of flies to lay hundreds of larvae, leading to more flies. Pest problems intensify at an exponential rate as the initial intruders reproduce. The longer you wait to call in help, the bigger the infestation will be — and the more costly. For example,if your hotel or hospitality service has a small bedbug problem in one room, it can quickly spread to the rest of the rooms as the bed bugs reproduce. If you fail to address the problem at its earliest stage, you’ll end up with a major problem and more expensive solution.

Customers have started to complain

If customers start to notice or complain about pests in your establishment, you have already waited too long to address the problem and you need to immediately find a solution. Pest problems heavily affect the reputation of your business, so it’s always best to address any kind of problem before customers catch wind of it.
